South Korean soldiers fired warning shots after North Korean troops crossed the heavily fortified border between the two countries, marking the second such incident this month. The crossings, which appear to be inadvertent, occurred amidst increased construction activities by North Korea along the border, including the installation of anti-tank barriers and the planting of land mines. These developments have raised tensions in the region, although South Korea's military does not believe the crossings were intentional. The incidents have led to casualties on the North Korean side due to mine explosions. Despite the warning shots, there was no exchange of fire between the two sides, indicating a cautious approach to avoid escalation.

The North Koreans along the border, Seoul says, have been installing what appear to be anti-tank barriers, reinforcing roads and planting land mines, even as mine explosions have killed or wounded an unspecified number of North Korean soldiers.
